Restorative Yoga

Restorative Yoga is a gentle, soothing practice designed to help the body release tension, the breath soften, and the nervous system settle. Unlike more active forms of yoga, Restorative Yoga uses props such as bolsters, blankets, blocks, and straps to fully support the body in restful poses. With the body held comfortably, there is very little effort required, only the invitation to pause, breathe, and receive.

​

In this practice, poses are held for longer periods of time, allowing the body to gradually soften and release. This slower pace supports deep relaxation, stress relief, and a greater sense of ease. Many students find Restorative Yoga helpful for quieting the mind, improving sleep, easing fatigue, and reconnecting with themselves in a kind and compassionate way.

​

Restorative Yoga is accessible to a wide range of students and can be a beautiful practice at any age or stage of life. Whether you are new to yoga, returning after time away, recovering from stress, or simply craving a peaceful place to rest, this practice offers space to slow down and restore.

At Be Well, Restorative Yoga is offered as a Specialty Practice and may include Yoga Nidra, a guided relaxation practice that invites even deeper rest, renewal, and inner calm.
